Jenn, I rarely had anxiety or depression until the LD symptoms showed up. Since then, I've had terrible panic attacks for no good reason, and it is not related to any of my meds. I didn't think that Xanax helped so I didn't stay on it. One thing I want you to know, though, is to be careful if you decide to take it. I took a low dose every day for 2 weeks and decided to stop. Since it had been such a short time and it was a low dose, I thought I could do that, cold turkey. Well, it felt like someone had pushed me off a cliff. I thought I was having a heart attack and had to be driven into Emergency. As it turned out, I should have gone off the Xanax gradually. So, just FYI. I don't take anything regularly now. A lot of my supplements are calming and if I get really bad, I take Klonopin. I haven't had any problems with that, but everyone is different. |
"When I was diagnosed I was scared didn't know what to do or where to go..I started reserching bipolar and somehow ended up here at MD....Again scared but needing to know what was in store I asked a question..WOW the people who care..I know I would be lost now if I did not join..made many friends and they have helped me through thick and thin. and never judged...........XX Thank you MD and all.Love all of you.......Laurie Pachin" (puppylover)
